Scenes
Gustav Mahler (Robert Powell) hallucinates that he has died and is in a coffin with a glass panel over his face. His wife Alma (Georgina Hale) contemptuously dances on his coffin and then squats over the panel as if about to pee on it. We see a shot from his perspective as she squats, and then the camera cuts to his panicked face behind the glass.
